11 meter is very quiet?

Finally made contact with Vietnam! 242TW001 on 27.580USB. Just barely made the trip though......bad QRM on both sides. I figured I had a good chance after DX Man worked the same guy a few nights back. 150 watts and a homemade horizontal delta loop.

Heard everything from Alaska to Australia to Indonesia to Phillipines & Hawaii for about 30 minutes after that, then the band died a fast death.
 
have imissed much ? been busy n knobs grew dusty in off position
Not much here, an occasional loud station that I can hear. The rest are way down in the grass, but I can still hear them because my noise floor is s1. It used to be s5 to s7, so I am enjoying it while it lasts...

Hit and miss out here on the west coast. Conditions have been excellent in the late afternoon/early evening for a couple hours, but kinda ho-hum the rest of the day.
Still making lots of contacts though, mostly on 36 LSB and 26805 FM.

Seems as if dx has tapered down a little but I've been busy so I'm hoping it's only a short term thing. I can't remember when it starts tapering off for the summer. But spring is around the corner and that means getting all the lawn equipment ready. Right now it is vehicle problems. Oh well I'm glad I can still do it !

  • @ Hambones amps:
    Does anyone know if you can replace the 2290 in a galaxy dx 93t twin turbine with a 2sc2879 red dot? If so, what would have to be tuned?
  • @ ShadowDelaware:
    Hambones the entire amp section would have to be retuned, and the rf transformers re wrapped.
